Air Jordan 2 “Fire Red” Set For 2023: Details

by

There was a time when the Air Jordan 2 was actually considered a lower-tier Jumpman sneaker. Perhaps this is because following this sneaker’s initial release, Michael Jordan almost left Nike. Tinker Hatfield eventually brought him back in with the Jordan, however, the Jordan 2 was left with a negative connotation. As the years went by, Nike and Jordan Brand left the shoe behind. Although, over the course of the last year or so, this shoe has been having a huge resurgence of sorts.

Included in this resurgence are a ton of amazing colorways. Overall, Jordan Brand has been doing a great job of making sure this shoe is as well-represented as possible. Consumers are being given a ton of options, and that’s certainly a good thing for the Jordan 2 ecosystem. Additionally, the brand has been providing new offerings of the Air Jordan 2 Low, which has also proven to be popular. Having said all of that, it should come as no surprise that 2023 will also contain quite a few Air Jordan 2s. One of them can even be found below.

Nike LeBron 4 “Graffiti” Set To Return: Details

by

LeBron James has a lot of great signature sneakers, including the Nike LeBron 4. However, this probably isn’t his most popular offering. For the most part, fans gravitate towards his offerings from the Miami Heat days. Overall, shoes like the Nike LeBron 8, 9, and 10 were extremely colorful. The Heat were a team that lent itself well to some unique color schemes. Everyone remembers those iconic “South Beach” and “Miami Nights” offerings that swept sneakerheads off of their feet. However, that is not to say that LeBron’s earlier output didn’t also have a massive impact.

Throughout the last few years, Nike Basketball has been trying to conjure up some LeBrons to retro. After all, James is someone who has a massive fanbase. Consequently, there are tons of ways to capitalize on his success. One way to do so is to bring out old LeBron shoes that people remember fondly. Sometimes, these old colorways are even transplanted onto newer silhouettes. In fact, this happened with the Nike LeBron 4 “Graffiti.” Although now, the OG LeBron 4 version of this scheme is set to return for real.
